R.Ross ,   Australia   (09.23.11)
Seems to me the Iranians were gracious and the snickering audience was rude.
2. Disgusting
Gili Boy the Dude ,   Viva Viv   (09.23.11)
Well what "difficult Question" did you try to ask?? Doesn't sound like you asked anything... And if you couldn't ask then you should've stood up and heckled him, calling him a murderer and sponsorer of terror!! And the business card is supposed to be a momento?? Are you serious?! I'm pretty ashamed that you share the same nationality as me today Folk, you let us down!!
3. Bwahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!
dshap ,   Miami,USA   (09.23.11)
Listen Ross, I did not want there to be any mistake... I am not snickering at you... I laugh in your face. You would have a group of intellectuals listen to bold faced lies by this murderous oppressor of his own people, a provocateur of war and oppression, without expression of disbelief. It is my opinion that the real mistake this audience made was to give this tyrant an audience at all. Oh by the way, Bwahahahahahaha!!!!
4. #'s 1 & 2; YOU HAVE IT BACKWARDS
Mark from Georgia ,   USA   (09.23.11)
#1;Ross, we live in a free country, when a liar gets up in front of you, and lies to your face (i.e. His respect for "free elections") snickering was the least offensive. They didn't believe him and their natural reaction was to laugh at an obvious lie. Unless of course you believe Ahmadinejad respects free elections, but then why would he have had to kill and wound thousands of his own people, who felt he rigged the elections? #2;G Boy, Just because they didn't jump up "and call him a murderer and sponsor of terrorism", Your ashamed? I think acting like the animals you dislike is what should make you "ashamed". Those are the very tactics the Arabs use at American Universities. They deny the right of free speech to anybody from Israel or is Pro-Israel (by shouting them down). That is disgusting, and that is what should be condemned and make you "ashamed" These people acted properly, they allowed the speaker to say what he came to say, and laugh at his statements that were lies, a restrained, intelligent way to express disapproval.
5. Palestine
Timmy ,   USA   (09.23.11)
Why does the US get all the blame even though we did not create this mess. The British established the British Mandate of Palestine in the 20th Century. It ceased to exist in 1948 with the creation of the modern State of Israel. Simple common knowledge.
6. Who's the liar?
Freeman ,   Bangladesh   (09.23.11)
All of the people are calling each other liar. But, the people of third world or from the tri-continent know better who are the liar. Ahmadinajad is a human being just like Netaniyaho and Barak Obama. All of these people kill the people without arms and food. Come to the third world, see, how World Bank, IMF, ADB kill the poor people through giving (aids+terms and conditions). The USA and the rich countries loots billions of dollars from the poor and sometimes gives back a bit to them with hatred. What Ahmadinejad said about the 'thief' is true, but he lies about the working people of this country. Please don't guess, come and see, how an Israeli soldier kills a teen.
7. Bomb - inhumane wiping out a nation NOT?
Yehudah ,   Brooklyn   (09.23.11)
This liar reportedly stated that using a bomb to wipe out 150,000 would be inhumane, but has denied the holocaust of 6M plus openly and publicly declared that his mandate is to kill all Jews and wipe Israel of the map. But that is not inhumane. That is common sense and defending public interest. Folk, you missed a perfect opportunity.
8. #4 - Mark, well said, even Achmadi is a terrorist & idiot
bernardo ,   munich/germany   (09.23.11)
9. Use the silver cup well
Al ,   Wilkes-Barre US   (09.23.11)
Dan should use the silver cup as a kiddush cup just to shove it back at this Hitler want-to-be
10. #1 Ross
Maurice ,   Montreal   (09.23.11)
I remind you that this mnkey claimed that Iran has no gays and lesbians, and he denies the Holocaust! If you want people to respect him then something is definitely wrong with you!
11. Why didn't Dan asked a difficult question to him?
Can ,   Istanbul   (09.23.11)
He had his chance but he points his finger to others... Bah!
12. who wants to wipe me and my family off the map.
split ,   US   (09.23.11)
Another hasbara victim ,...
13. The fact of the matter
Gordon Wagner ,   San Diego CA USA   (09.23.11)
Iran doesn't have a nuclear arsenal nor does it refuse IAEA inspections. Iran is an NNPT signatory. Iran has not engaged in systematic slaughter of an indigenous population, routinely ignoring the UN. Israel, on the other hand, DOES have a nuclear arsenal, DOES refuse IAEA inspections, IS NOT an NNPT signatory, and engaged in the aerial bombardment of a captive civilian population. For the US and the other poodle nations to walk out during Ahmadinejad's speech was disgraceful and unprofessional.
14. Iranian President
Howard ,   Chennai, India   (09.23.11)
Only a POOP would talk like this
15. 7 - When and where did he said that ??? ,...
split ,   US   (09.23.11)
"but has denied the holocaust of 6M plus openly and publicly declared that his mandate is to kill all Jews and wipe Israel of the map"
16. LMFAO
Infidel ,   Tehran   (09.23.11)
Its quite polite to laugh at an comedian who needs an audience. What I don't understand is how this clown was allowed on stage without make up? Its deluded idiots like this that make a mockery of politics and disseminate a propaganda of hate based on fictitious convenient history. But then what do you expect of someone who's only ever experienced brainwashing. Ahmadinejad is a symptom of a Faith gone wrong. Free speech? Give me a break, when was anything worthwhile free? Someone one always pays, you listen to him you pay......or pay attention. In doing so, you've granted him power. Ever since the Iranian revolution, world wide the Muslim world has been radicalized and efforts of creating a global caliphate has been underway. Now pay attention! These fruits are now close to fruition. One nation, the Muslim nation [the world]. [>Cue laughter<] Yes, well I'm with you, but try telling that to the circus.
17. #6;Freeman,THE FUN FACTS
Mark from Georgia ,   USA   (09.23.11)
You write: "Please don't guess, come and see, how an Israeli soldier kills a teen." The question is not that a "teen" was killed, but how and why? Even the use of the word "teen" is a cheap attempt to draw sympathy. But why didn't you look at the 4 month old baby who was stabbed to death by an admitted Arab terrorist? You write: "All of these people kill the people without arms and food." There has never been a single death in Gaza or the West Bank due to starvation, ever! 6,000 rockets and mortars have been fired at Israel (what do you mean by "unarmed"). In the days after the flotilla, these pictures were taken and smuggled out of Gaza. HERE: http://current.com/1a6e04c Who was starving again???? Again you write: "What Ahmadinejad said about the 'thief' is true" Really!! Ahmadinejad had it backwards though. The Zionist movement came in...remember Jewish people have always have lived there....for the last 3500 years without interruption. Jerusalem was a majority Jewish City, the Census taken in1844 listed 7500 Jewish, 5500 Arabs. Over a hundred years before the rebirth of Israel. So the Zionist movement legally bought all the land they could. After the UN vote (1947) the Arabs started a a war (1948) and tried to "steal" back (to use your word) the land the Jewish people legally purchased, Hmmm. CASE CLOSED
18. Re:Israeli student receives special gift from Ahmadinejad
Moshe ,   Tehran Iran   (09.23.11)
Interesting number of anti-Iran protestors; 4 in all. What losers!
19. #12;split, TRY A NEW WORD
Mark from Georgia ,   USA   (09.23.11)
Another Pallywood Kool-Aid drinker!!
20. He's a waste of time.
Ypip ,   Canada   (09.23.11)
21. @ Fact of the matter?
PolyCrackers ,   San Diego   (09.23.11)
It obviously hasn't occurred to you that since the 70's Iran has sponsored terror networks globally? War by proxy or stealth is no excuse, signatory or not. What are you a stooge? The UN is not a media event of of populist opinions. It is a LEGAL PLATFORM, and as such only facts should be submitted since the UN has legal ramifications GLOBALLY. Your attention needs to widen its historical sample base. Since you don't realize how the Arab world plays chess.
22. Disgusting, indeed.
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / israel   (09.23.11)
Dan Folk should have his Israeli citizenship lifted. Why did he not walk out and toss whatever he had received as a "gift" the instant Ahmedinejad started talking about the Holocaust? Israelis like Dan Folk, Israel does not need. Let him live in Teheran.
23. To: No. 5
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (09.23.11)
First of all, get your facts straight. The British Mandate over Palestine technically ended in 1947. The Brits spent the next several months handing over military bases and arms to the ARABS, Simple common knowledge.
24. To: No. 1
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (09.23.11)
Please tell me why any Jew would be interested in listening to a babbling chimpanzee whose graduate degrees were earned in the subject of "Holocaust Denial." Gracious, indeed. Hey -- by the way -- when are the "Australians" going to compensate the Aborigines for all the Aborigines massacred (tens of millions, as I am given to understand) by British criminals who were off-loaded from the convict transports? I am waiting graciously.
25. To: No. 12
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (09.23.11)
That would depend. I know that you are seriously disturbed. Is the rest of your family genetically defective, too? In that case, stay out of the gene pool. The United States has enough idiots already -- just look at the president.
26. To: No. 16
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (09.23.11)
Well, are the Iranian people going to do anything to get rid of Ahmedinejad and his band of merry mullahs? You managed to get rid of the Shah. Why not work your "magic" again?
27. Freeman?
Koose E Mack ,   NY NY   (09.23.11)
For a man who comes from a country where Anti Semitism, Anti Zionism, and repression of Hinduism is institutional, you sure have a lot of hypocrisy to spew. In Bangladesh, if a teen throws a rock and uses physical violence against a soldier or police officer, what do you think would happen. Try it in your own country badu ma chut!
28. @ Silver Cup
ZigSmiles ,   Berlin   (09.23.11)
I toast you sir, for you are an absolute genius [ inspired of course ]. God would approve of such an act. And I'm sure this wine would taste the sweetest......... :)
29. Magic? Reply to 24 + 26
Infidel ,   Tehran   (09.23.11)
Well, I don't think anything worthwhile would be achieved in throwing this lunatic out. Too many clones waiting in the queue. I empathize with your tone. However, elimination of the symptom not the cause is the mistake the west makes when dealing with the Arab world. I would like many surah's removed from the Qu'ran, as they were not inspired by GOD and contradict much of the real teaching [ GODS ]. Mohammad's teaching was an over reaction to the rife polytheism of their time [ 365 gods to be exact ]. Some zealot took his last breathe and wishes too far and assumed a natural extension would be to remove all Jews from Saudi Arabia too. So begins the struggle between the descendants of Abraham. By the way, 10 million Aborigines in Australia never existed. Perhaps you should check the Australian census records? Certainly many were killed and later mistakes made. But much land, money and repatriation programs have been made available to them. The government in Australia has apologized too, so they are not in denial. Hardly Iran.
30. Israeli student how low you can go !
